Description
With razor-sharp acuity and snappy language, Dayboil centres on a community in crisis--a kitchen-table comedy that quickly takes a dark turn.
Four middle-aged women meet at Kathy's house in rural Newfoundland for their weekly cup of tea and gossip when tragic news disrupts their usual banter: Kathy's husband has killed himself. Abruptly, the threads that hold their comfortable community life together begin to snap, and they find themselves exposed by the unravelling of their social fabric.
Darkly funny and deeply touching, Dayboil explores the rigidity of gender roles that prevent men from seeking help and lock women into caretaking positions, as well as the emotional and physical fallout that can result.
